Cashmere, a new release from Esteban Carreras is beginning to show up on store shelves, though the company so far has been tight-lipped about it.

While the company has not responded to several emails seeking information about the cigar, several retailers have listed details about it on their websites. The blend uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, while the binder and filler both come from Nicaragua. The cigar is made at the company’s factory, Tabacalera Carreras, in Nicaragua.

  • Esteban Carreras Cashmere Boolit (4 3/4 x 46)
  • Esteban Carreras Cashmere Toro (6 x 50)
  • Esteban Carreras Cashmere Churchill (7 x 50)
  • Esteban Carreras Cashmere Sixty (6 x 60)

The Boolit comes in boxes of 32 cigars, while the other sizes are offered in 20-count boxes. Pricing is between about $5.50 and $10 per cigar.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
